Hi guys, yesterday I spotted something on my tree, although I had a year of death for my 5th Great Grandfather William Phillips I didn't have a location. The first thing to come up was Stockton but he didn't live there so I dismissed it, however I couldn't find a Bishop Middleham death at all. Neither could I on FreeBDM, Stockton Roots wouldn't bring up any deaths at all but Durham Records Online did bring up a burial for a William Phillips in Stockton with a birthplace of Cornforth which is in Bishop Middleham.
I searched Family Search which gave the same time frame but the death was in Bishop Middleham so now I have no idea which location is correct at all. I don't suppose anyone else is up for a little searching are they?
William Phillips
Baptized: 2 July 1772, Bishop Middleham
Married: 9 Dec 1793, Bishop Middleham
Death: 28th April 1848, ?
Thank you.
